I took my wife to the hospital for some tests, and suddenly the doctor came out, approached me, and whispered, “Call the police immediately.”

That morning, the hospital was busier than usual. People were moving around quickly, rushing with papers in their hands.

My wife was supposed to undergo some tests, and I was accompanying her, as usual.

She went into the doctor’s office, and I stayed outside. While waiting, my heart started beating faster for no apparent reason, a strange feeling I couldn’t explain.

Ten minutes later, a doctor came out of the examination room. He looked troubled, almost shaken, which immediately made me uneasy.

He stared at me for a moment, then approached me and whispered in a barely audible voice, low enough that no one else could hear: “Call the police immediately.”

I froze, unable to react. My hands started trembling. I asked him what was happening.

He looked at me and continued speaking in a very low voice. His words took my breath away, and I struggled to process what he had just said. I stood there, speechless, my heart racing, as if the ground had suddenly disappeared beneath my feet.

The doctor explained to me that the test results and certain clinical signs suggested progressive poisoning.

“She has suffered prolonged abuse,” he said, before asking for the police’s intervention before she was allowed to leave.

I stepped outside, trembling, and called the police.

The operator reassured me, saying a patrol would be there soon.

Ten minutes later, two police officers arrived.

They questioned the doctor, then asked me to wait in the hallway.

When I was finally allowed to enter, my wife was there, pale and in tears, avoiding my gaze.

The doctor informed me that the poisoning was caused by a toxic substance, most likely present in the water she had been drinking at home.

She thought her symptoms were simply due to fatigue, but in reality, the situation was much more serious.

She had been poisoned multiple times.

My wife explained that each time she drank the water left on the kitchen counter, she would feel ill, but she didn’t want to worry me.

The police launched an investigation.

Thanks to the doctor’s vigilance, the truth was discovered in time, before it was too late.
